Disinfectives. MEssas. EDITORS.—As the cholera has already reached our shares, it has become the imperative duty of every person to use all the precaution,a which past experience has clevelop.gclto prevent Lhe spread of its ravagak. '1..14 the coun try Vh,ere the air is pure very few cases occur ; and in cities its ravages are more 'fearful in the more filthy parts, where private indifference to cleanliness on the part of citizens, and public neglect of duty on the part of municipal authorities allow putrid matter to accumulate. Our city fathers have been engaged for some time in cleaning up our streets, and we occasionally hear of their having discov ered a nuisance in rear, where privies which have been neglected for something less than a century, and running over to the great annoyance of the whole neigh borhood. The miaQma arising from privies is sufficient of ;itseV to almost create an epidemic, and yet the most of our good citizens appear to be satisfied if they can conduct it a little higher than their own heads and tura it loose in the atmosphere which we all breathe,thereby changing the great element of life and health into a sure conductor p of disease and death. Nature has an antidote for every poison, and . 91though she produces i..fectives during decompositieo, she also produces disinfectives ; the most power ful of which is chlorine, which forms some sixty per cent of common salt,which nature has produced in abundance at prices within the reach of every house keeper. Perhaps the most convenient way of using chlorine is in the faun of chlorid of lime,a small quantity of which should be sprinkled *in a privy, two or three times a week. This can be pro-. cured at guy dru g store, and perhaps a dollar's wottli will be sufficient to disin fect a privy for a whole summer. LOCAT-1. For tne Spy. "Credit to whom Credit is dile." MEssits En rods.—About two weeks ago your subscriber was in receipt of goods from Philadelphia, via Reading, .. . and on inspection, one large package of considerable value, was missing. The firm in . Philadelphia was immediately informed by letter, of the fact. Pend ing the receipt of an answer, the missing package (as was supposed,) was received. Ilut adyipes from the City disclosed the fact, that the first package was destroyed on the road, but replaced by the Rail Road Company and forwarded, occasion ing no annoyance, with no additional expense, and no delay beyond 4 singlp . day. Every business man in Columbia can at once see what a contrast this presents to the conduct of the P. R. R., monoply on similar occasions. Articles of little value are quarreled about as though, that great and mighty concern was on the verge of dissolution. Should an ac cident similar to the one above happen to them, mouths would elapse before a final settlement could be reached, if reached at all, and the words that would be - wagtedon their agent, at this place, would appear to be almost innumerable. Should we have any difficulty in decid ing which road shall receive our p?.tron age, whpn the Reading & Columbia R. R., carries freight in as short a time, at as cheap a rate, and with more certainty than the Penn R. R. monoply? We think not, and will only add, in conclus• ion, that the writer is not in the interest of the R. & C. It.. R.,. except so fan as Irefers to tliq prompt transaction of his business. FAIR FLAX. Iliteresting to the Lovers of Pork. The following item of news will prove interesting to those who are fond of the flesh of the pachydermatous quadiluped which enters so largely into •the com merce of some of our western cities: After a month's investigation, a committee from the Chicago Scientific Academy report having found in twelve hundred hogs slaughtered, one in fifty eight afil?.eted by the trichina spirali4, and this is said to be a greater ratio of disease than exists generally in Germany. The advice riven to pork purveyors and consumers is simple. Let meat be cooked thoroughly atinn degrees, Fahrenheit, or be properly salted and smoked, or carefully dessicted. There can be very little doubt that Chicago has qoup, the best that can be done to mitigate the dread of pork which has taken possession of many persons' minds. If cooking at 160 detrrees (Fah renheit) will destroy the trickina,it would seena au easy matter to avoid the terrible dangerfor meat can hardly be cooked at all at so low a tenwerature. If there were no pecuniary interests at stake : it is probable the swine's flesh would soon be come as, objectionable to Christians as it is to the descendants of Abraham. Now that the scientific investigation has sbown ' that the pork of Chicago is worse than that of Germany, people who are at all nice about what they eat will find more wholesome food.—Phira. Daily Hews. A SOUTHERNER'S 0 PINION OF BEECH ER —A letter writes from Alabama, in the New York Watchman, (SL.uthern) hrs a neighbor who has been on a visit recently to the great metropolis, and thinks well of Rev. H. W. Beecher, he says: "I went half an hour before the time apd barely was in time for a seat. Beech er will do. Beecher has religion. The people sing like a genuine Methodist camp meeting. You feel when you come away, that qoa helping, you will be a better man. Your heart is moved, your eyos moistened. No, nigger, no politics, real gospel, heart searching,practical re ligion. I went again and it was the same thing. We discussed Beecher, and con cluded he would do, and made up our minds to invite him down to the Capital of Alabama to preach. —The number of Confederate dead none sleeping at Hollywood: Cemetery, Richmond, is about eight thousand, rep resenting every State in the late Confed eracy; and the num . b i er in Oakwood Cemetery is at least ten thousand.

" The Education of Girls. For the Spy. After much opposition the — Uambridp examination for girls in England hive become regularly-established, apparently with the best results. The last report of the Sypilicate of Cambridge University on-the Isaal 'examinations held -through out the coupery during the'Past winter shows that the girls have not only shown themselves superior in 'the points in which it was certain they would do better than th.e boys, bUt 'in mathematics ,also they Kaye gained greater credit. The style of their papers were more to tho point, with far fewer attempts at fine writing than their male competitors in dulge in. Ten gills out of twelve passed a cred itable examination in Latin, being dis tinguished for accuracy and good taste in translation. A hundred and twentysix girls were examined, and the examiners gave reports which seemto answsr some of the chief objections against the exam ination for girls, stating that no undue excitement ma's noticeable, nor any signs of weariness towards the end of the week. On the contrary, all was very method ical and orderly, and the girls did their voric in a most businesslike way,without flagging. CURE 'OR TIIE ,CONSUMPTION.-It hr t & been found that if the terrible dis ease has not arrived at its last stage, it may be ceTtainly cured by thp constant aud continued Use of pap made with the flour of maize . of agality—this is essential. An emipent Ft'ench physician, whose great experience on the subject, reccommends that, pu the first ap pearance of the malady the pap should' be made to constitute the chief article of food. It is prepared by adding the maize to a mixture of half milk and water. This is to be kept stirred on the fire until it boils; after which the fire is to be rendered less intense by the addi tion of cinders, and the pap is to be left for eight or ten minutes, without being stirred. It is then to be taken from the fire, and a little salt is to be put into it. If the patient cannot take milk, broth may be substituted for it,or water—butter being added—but milk is best. The Grates or Uoion Soldiers. The War Department has just issued an order relative to the graves of U. S. Soldiers, as follows; All persons engaged in the cultivation of land,who may have the graves of U. S. soldiers, located upon their lands, are - . hereby forbiddcn to mutilate or obliterate the tzaces of such giaves by plowing or otherwise, or to destroy the . head-boards, stakes or fepses around them. All officers on duty, or provost marshals, post commanders, or otherwise connected with the military service,are instructed to send inform4tion of the locality and condition of such graves, and of any breach of this order, to the Quartermaster General. The Provost Marshal General has com pleted a careful compilation, from the muster rolls, of all deaths in battle, from wounds NO from disease, in every regi ment and company of every . loyal State from the beginnineto the, close •of the war. From it appears that 280,739 officers and men have lost their lives in the service. Of this ntpather 5221 com missioned officers 'and 90,889 enlisted morn haVe beien in' actiob, or died of wounds, while - 2821 commissioned officers and 182,329 enlisted men have died of disease, 5,r, in a few cases, from accident. —Josh Billing says : " I could never find the meaning of the word ' colide' in Worcester or Webster; but riding the other day pp the New York Central rail road, I saw it all.
